Thanks for the advice, and this brings up another question...  Honestly, if 
I were using an internal redirect, I wouldn't need to bother with these 
environment variables at all.  The problem is that many times before I do 
this redirect, I also need to set a cookie.  Am I correct in assuming that 
an internal redirect does NOT have the ability to set a cookie?

The entire reason I have to do this is that I need to pass sensitive values 
to the CGI script from the module.  I do not wish to use a simple query 
string, as the end user would then be able to intercept this.  I want to 
pass values to the "child" CGI script (even though it is an entirely new 
request) without them being able to be intercepted easily.  Hence, I thought 
if I could give the script access to the environment, I wouldn't need to 
pass the parameters over through the URI.  Is there anohter way to do this?
